Jackson Rejects Comparisons to Chelsea Legend Drogba

Chelsea striker Nicolas Jackson has played down comparisons between himself and club legend Didier Drogba. Jackson, who is 22 years old and from Senegal, believes he hasn’t yet reached the level of success that Drogba achieved in his career.

Jackson, keen to avoid premature comparisons, said, “I don’t compare myself with anyone because I haven’t reached the level of Drogba yet.” He showed respect for Drogba’s achievements, saying, “Didier is a legend in Africa and at Chelsea. He won everything. I haven’t won anything yet.”

He added, “It’s nice to be compared to him, but it means you’re heading in the right direction. I just have to work harder to be like him, or even better.”
